"Wait, don't knock on the door."
Jenkins pretended to rummage through his pockets, then took out the monocle and placed it in front of his eyes. Squinting his eyes and looking inside the door, he found an extremely faint black aura.
"interesting… "
I thought in my heart that I was about to leave with the girl, so it was better to leave this kind of matter to the church. Unexpectedly, it was such an unfortunate coincidence that the door opened at this moment.
Inside the door was a woman in gray loose pajamas, unkempt like a beggar on the street. This was Mrs. Strath, of course, but she had not been like this the last time we met at church.
"Hello."
Although feeling a bit awkward in the current situation, Jenkins was the first to say hello.
"Hello... oh, it's Mr. Feeney and William, please come in."
Mrs. Strass looked as if she was not awake, and let Jenkins and Fenny go in by opening the door.
Immediately, both of them smelled a soaring stench. This is somewhat different from the "corpse smell" in my impression. It should be caused by domestic garbage and long-term lack of ventilation in the room.
Jenkins remembered Phinney saying that when she came to visit last week, everything was normal.
Looking down, the little girl was also puzzled and panicked.
"No, no, please don't be so polite. Fini and I just stopped by. I remembered that the gift for the end of the year hasn't been given to you yet."
Holding back the smile on his face, he rummaged in his pocket with his right hand and found a few lucky candies that he got last week.
"Too shabby?"
Thinking in my heart, a lifelike ice flower bud bloomed in my hand:
"Look, even though it's not very valuable, it's still something I made myself, please accept it."
Involuntarily, he stuffed the three delicate ice flowers into Mrs. Strese's hands. Fortunately, Jenkins could feel a normal body temperature.
Perhaps stimulated by the extremely low temperature of these ice flowers, the middle-aged woman shivered, and then looked at the two people in front of her again as if she had woken up.
"Oh, please come in and sit down, yes, you must."
She grabbed the hands of Jenkins and Fenny very impolitely, but Jenkins was much stronger than her, and the three of them were in a stalemate for a moment.
"There are guests visiting!"
Seeing that her actions were useless, the woman suddenly screamed in shock, and then heard hurried footsteps coming from inside the house.
"Go!"
Jenkins immediately understood that something was really wrong, and regardless of whether he would sprain the woman's arm, he forcibly pulled his wrist out of her hand, and then pulled Fenny to leave.
As soon as she turned around, Fei Ni beside her seemed to have stepped on something, and she had no time to adjust her body balance and fell towards the door.
She subconsciously pulled Jenkins, and Jenkins also pulled her, but the girl's clothes were somehow caught by the nails on the wall. The movement of reaching out tore a big hole in the clothes, and turned around to cover it. Jenkins also quickly retreated his hand, but Mrs. Stress seized the opportunity to hold it again. With just a push, Jenkins and Fenny lost their balance at the same time, and fell towards the house together.
It was just a twig that Fei Ni stepped on. Although there was a possibility of falling due to this, the probability of this happening was definitely lower than that of gold pounds falling from the sky.
Boom~
After falling into the door, someone grabbed his wrist and pulled him inward, and the door was closed behind his feet. Jenkins couldn't stand this anymore, he got up neatly and with a flick of his arm, pushed aside the two adults and three children beside him, protected Fenny behind him, took out the pistol at his waist with his left hand and pointed it forward.
"What exactly are you going to do?"
He leaned down and asked, feeling the cat in his chest wriggling.
"Sir, the door won't open."
Fenny reminded in a low voice.
Before Jenkins were the Stresses, whose hospitality had impressed him on a previous visit. But at this time, everyone was staring at the two visiting guests like a ghost, and turned a blind eye to Jenkins' gun.
"A new guest has arrived."
Jenkins heard Mrs. Stress mutter in a low voice, then laughed like crazy, and finally turned and walked towards the house.
Her husband and children did the same, but compared to the middle-aged woman, they seemed more dull and inhuman.
"gentlemen… "
Feeney yelled worriedly, tugging at the hem of Jenkins' coat.
"Don't worry."
He instructed in a low voice, staring at the direction where the group of people disappeared, and touched the doorknob with his right hand backwards, twisted it violently, but the doorknob did not move at all.
"Can you use a gun?"
He asked a silly question.
"Won't."
Got the expected answer.
Jenkins nodded, turned his head quickly and then back again. The moment he turned his head, he saw a faint black aura floating on the surface of the door.
Not only that, it should be said that this house has an extremely dim black aura. Although this kind of light is so weak that it can't even be seen intuitively until Jenkins enters here, such a large area is really shocking.
"Could it be some strange monster?"
He couldn't guess what it was, and after confirming that the Stress family would not return to the hall for the time being, he turned around and kicked the door with a corner.
There was a loud bang, and Jenkins felt pain in his right foot, but the door remained motionless.
"That's what makes it interesting."
The best way to find out what's going on here is to go inside and take a look. But Jenkins thought it was better to stay out of danger and let the church handle it, and now he just wanted to leave immediately.
Looking down at the terrified girl, he whispered:
"Finnie, well, please allow me to call you that. I hope you can understand that in the world we live in, supernatural forces such as ghosts and evil spirits are real, and the church also has forces that can fight them." Power. Don't be surprised whatever you see for a while."
The girl is considered an internal member of the church. Although it is illegal to do so, it should not be a problem to go through the formalities after returning. After this incident, she will sign a confidentiality contract, vowing to keep the church a secret forever.
"Yes, yes, sir."
Although the girl didn't understand what was going to happen, she still nodded slightly.
One of the few benefits of this era is that people are still "ignorant". Although they are afraid of those unknown things, they are obviously more accepting of the existence of supernatural forces. Otherwise, Jenkins would have to waste a lot of time explaining the whole story. Now Time is of the essence.
